Gran Canaria Airport was the destination of Spanair Flight 5022, the flight that crashed right after takeoff from Madrid Barajas Airport (MAD) on August 20, 2008:

On August 20, 2008, an MD-82 jet crashed immediately after takeoff from runway 36L and caught fire, killing at least 153 of the 172 people on board. It was bound for Gran Canaria Airport (LPA):

This airport has two ICAO codes: LEVS as a military airport, and LECU as a civilian airport.
For the identifier, I'm sticking with Wikipedia and using LEPA as the primary one. The Wikipedia article also mentions that Son San Joan Airport is the previous name. I have the other code and the older name in keywords, so that they'll still show up for searches.
The DAFIF record for this airport shows both ids. I assume it's one for the civil part and one for the military part. It also has "Palma De Mallorca" and "Son San Juan" shown as names.
So which one are you going with?
